What is CBD?

Let’s get scientific for just a second. CBD is short for cannabidiol, and is an active ingredient found in cannabis that’s derived from hemp.
So it’s illegal?
Nope! CBD is a legal ingredient because it’s been extracted away from its illegal counterpart,THC (that’s the bit that gets you high and has psychoactive properties).
What can CBD help me with?
Without THC, CBD is a wonder and can help with so many things including anxiety, depression, acne, inflammation, sleeping better and heart disease. A simple Google search of success stories can show you even more.
I’ve tried to research this before, but I don’t get answers…
Unfortunately, companies that sell CBD products are not legally allowed to talk of its medical benefits because the FDA currently lists CBD as a ‘novel food’ and not ‘medicine’. There is ongoing research to try and change this.
How can I ‘take’ CBD?
For beginners, we recommend introducing yourself to CBD oil first. It’s the easiest to obtain and versatile. You can place a few drops under your tongue or on your skin, add it to your moisturiser, or even add a few drops in your morning smoothie.
